No, there was no error message. The SSI orders simply were not acted upon. All SSI orders, not just Includes. I observed this on my FreePages site, http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~dav4is/ I did not check the L9PHS pages, but did check a SSI test page I had placed there a long time ago: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~dav4is/test/test-ssi.html I find it suspicious that the errors began at 05:00 and ended at 05:30 (EDT). As if some sort of maintenance was going on, or a server restart with a delay in beginning the SSI support. -R. On 2010-10-25 17:51, Ralph Taylor wrote: > Rod wrote: "Just a few minutes ago.

I suspect that there is a problem with the syntax you have used, e.g. the correct syntax is <!--#include file="myfile.txt" --> or <!--#include virtual="../myfile.txt" --> and the likely error is that you have no space after "myfile.txt" and -->. If the path is correct, and the file is identical to that used in the test page, then the problem must be with the #include syntax. Barry

I would like to start a website for my genealogy work. I've been using joomla and wordpress for a few years for my other site. I normally make 1 template for joomla/wordpress then use mods to add to it and categories to organize my articles. Were my problem comes in, genealogy software that produce websites generate html pages. I don't have much experience working with straight html sites, ok pretty much none other then tweaking css from my other sites. So I'm sitting here feeling like a newbie again. lol Is there anyway to get the html pages (such as ancestor lists) to "work" inside joomla? I know I can load them in a sub folder then use the menu to link to them. But if I wanted to load them into a joomla article it will through through all the links in the text. I'm guess it wont work, but never hurts to ask. :P I've made a template I like using Artisteer and I'm using Komposzer to edit it further. How do I get the generated pages from Legacy (or any other program) to use this template? Example if my index.html has my custom template and info. But when you generate the webpage's from the genealogy program it sets the background ect by default. Is there a way that these pages can auto pick up the template of the main site? I can see having to manually make pages for articles/photos, but to have to edit tons of narrative reports is a lot of work. lol There has to be an easier way to do this.... Thanks!

Hi Pat, It's me that's got the problem - not Lorrie :-) I use FileZilla and the transfer mode is set to ASCII. At the moment, at Lorrie's suggestion, I'm systematically going through each part of the page deleting divs to try and see what's triggering the problem. What is really confusing me is that there are a dozen pages with exactly the same code at the bottom of the page and all the other ones work. eg. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~engcbanb/war-memorials/adderbury/miller.htm <div class="author"> <p>Contributed by xxx Email: xxx To contact xxx, copy and paste the address and remove the brackets around the @ - thank you.</p> </div> </div> <!-- END OF CONTENT --> <!--#include virtual="../../includes/war-memorials-footer.txt" --> </div> <!-- END OF PAGE ID --> <!--#include virtual="../../includes/google-analytics.txt" --> </body> </html> What I have found is that if I add 2 include directives - the top one gives me an error but the second one appears OK. If I copy and paste the include directive to another place on the page - it appears OK If I delete the <div class="author"> which is just before the include - the include appears OK. And if I leave that div in but delete all it's contents, the include still works. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~engcbanb/war-memorials/adderbury/church-memorial-5.htm I'm at a loss :-((( The page giving me the problem is: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~engcbanb/war-memorials/adderbury/church-memorial.htm Rosemary Northumberland UK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On 24/10/2010 15:23, Pat Asher wrote: > At 04:05 AM 10/24/2010, Rosemary Probert wrote: >> I seem to have a really silly little problem with a new page. >> http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~engcbanb/war-memorials/adderbury/church-memorial.htm >> >> The SSI that I use at the bottom of the page is giving me an error >> message [an error occurred while processing this directive]. > > Hi Lorrie, > > Upload the file again -- but this time check to be sure your transfer > is in ASCII mode, not binary mode. > > ASCII handles spaces differently.

Following Nick Reddan advising the list of an easier way of recovering spreadsheet data and converting into HTML, I have spent some time creating a webpage with details on how it can be done. The page is at:- http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/HTML-Convertor/simple-table.html The methodology is straight forward, and once you become familiar with using a spreadsheet, the mechanics involved in converting the data into a HTML table format will become quite simple. The above page should render well in all browsers, and degrade gracefully in older versions back to and including Internet Explorer 5.01. Barry

Maybe do a trial & error process. Take "that" page down to the bare bones (as a copy) and do the include. Add in one part of "the page content". If it still works, add in another part, and so on until it "breaks" again -- or works -- whichever comes first. Judy

While messing around creating a webpage, I realised (not before time) that placing brackets around alpha or numeral list items is not part of the CSS2 specification. There is a proposal to incorporate a pseudo ::marker in CSS3, but at this time its is still a long way off. The answer, for those who might have an interest can be found in the source code of this page:- http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~bristowe/test/list.html You can change the bracket styles as required, and play with the negative text-indent values as needed.

Rosemary, At this point, if possible, it might be easier to use one of your other pages as a template if all content such as the header, menu and so on is the same but add the problem page's content and rename it as the problem file. Be sure to rename it to a test name first to make sure it works. This should give you a working page but does not solve the problem, which may occur again. To solve that problem, save the problem page as with another name so you can keep it and work on it at your leisure.

Hi Barry, The syntax I'm using is <!--#include virtual="../../includes/war-memorials-footer.txt" --> I think this is right - it's the same as on the other pages as I make a template for the common parts of the page.

Hi, I seem to have a really silly little problem with a new page. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~engcbanb/war-memorials/adderbury/church-memorial.htm The SSI that I use at the bottom of the page is giving me an error message [an error occurred while processing this directive].

CCleaner is a fantastic program. I have been using it for a long time. It can also be downloaded from filehippo.com. There are lots of good free programs on this site.

Rosemary, Can you save the problem file as a .txt file and upload it so others may view the code?

TY, Tina!  I haven't installed it yet, as I have so much to backup first, but I watched the tutorials and it looks like a great program to use.   Nice of you to let me know of your experience w/ Legacy 7.4 (Deluxe version is what I have which has a few "extra features"; not sure what they are yet)  Now I want the "Ani Maps" software as well!  THAT is an amazing program for old political boundaries, towns, etc.!  Both versions Free or Deluxe look very easy to use. I do believe "Ani Maps" is a seperate purchase...   Thanks again, Kathie B. (Hope to have time to get everything installed and imported asap... super busy week! to all who replied, again, Thank You all!) --- On Sat, 10/23/10, millergen@comcast.net <millergen@comcast.net> wrote: Subject: [FreeHelp] Legacy software When I got new computer with WIndows Xp (and then 7), my old genealogy was no longer compatible. After spending time researching and trialing a few different programs, I went with Legacy 7. Love it! there is a free version online and then you can upgrade if want. Wish I would used this one from the beginning!
